Full panchang for Sun 11 Mar in IpameriMaha Shivratri Nishita puja muhurat: what time?
Why is Maha Shivratri on Sun 11 Mar in Ipameri?
Maha Shivratri is on Sun 11 Mar: Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha that night, and no other.
Nishitha is Trayodashi; Chaturdashi begins at 03:13 Sun.
Chaturdashi holds all of nishitha, 23:59–00:46 Mon. Chaturdashi: 03:13 to 00:50 Mon.
One row per day, on one clock (UTC−3). Band: the tithi. Box: Nishitha. Dark strip: night.
Shiva’s worship centres on nishitha, the midnight muhurta. Chaturdashi runs from 03:13 on Sun 11 Mar to 00:50 on Mon 12 Mar, so only Sunday night’s nishitha (23:59–00:46 Mon) falls within it.
